C-17 Globemaster III crews from the Hawaii Air National Guard and 15th Wing are prepped for airlift operations at Ramstein Air Base, Germany during exercise Swift Response 19. The Globemasters flew with several C-130 airframes, from Canada, Italy, Spain and the U.S., during a joint forcible entry (JFE) training mission.
Pallets of heavy artillery and hundreds of paratroopers assigned to the 173rd Airborne Brigade were airdropped into Boboc Drop Zone, Romania, after nightfall. The JFE training was conducted for Swift Response which is held to deter regional aggression and support a balanced approach to security and stability in the Black Sea region.
